Players advance through the game by clearing missions set for each stage, and moving blocks with the same LINE character up, down, sideways, or diagonally to line up three or more and eliminate them. In addition, special blocks created by lining up four or more of the same block now feature all new attributes, such as having the ability to eliminate blocks in X and Y patterns, on top of the standard pattern of eliminating more blocks located directly above, to the side, or diagonal to a special block. Players will be faced with the task of strategically creating these special blocks in order to clear difficult missions.

 

Furthermore, players can battle their LINE friends via rankings based on the number of gold, silver, and bronze medals received for scores earned on stages, as well as the number of stages cleared.

 

Updates are planned for release in the future, including rankings displaying all game players, hidden stages, and more.
